MARION H. VERMILYE, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.

HOLDER FOR POLES AND OTHER ARTICLES.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 358,307, dated February 22, 1887.

Application filed October 28, 1886.

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, MARION H. VERMILYE, a citizen of the United States, residing at New York, in the countyof New York and State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Holders for Poles and'other Articles, of which the following is a specification. I

The object of this invention is to provide a simple and durable holder for such articles, for example, as fish-poles, fiag-poles, and the like; and theinvention consists in the features pointed out in the following specifica. tion and claim, and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is an end elevation of the holder. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the holder, partly in section. Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the holder.

Similarlettersindicate corresponding parts.

A indicates the arms of the holder, formed of suitable material-such, for example, as stout metal wire. A recess or depression, a, is formed in the holder, in which recess or depression can rest an article, such as a fishpole, flag-pole, or the like, indicated by the letter B and by dotted outlines.

A clamp, O, is formed on the holder, and preferably integral therewith. The legs 0 c of the clamp are adapted to catch over any suitable support, G, as,'for example, the side of a boat, a window-sill, or the like. The legs '0 c are preferably formed of some springy material, so that they can be sprung over the support G. Across the legs 0 0 extends a bridge, D, which forms a part of the clamp. The bridge can be riveted, soldered, or otherwise secured to the legs a c.

The bridge D is tapped for the reception of a clamping screw or screws, E, by which the holder can be clamped in position. The bridge D is also tapped for the reception of the screwshank f of an eyebolt, F. The eyebolt F is adapted to receive one end of the rod, pole, or bar B, as shown. By turning the screwshank f in the proper direction the eyebolt is either raised or lowered, as desired, thus giving the pole or rod B any inclination desired. The eyebolt F serves as a socket or support for the end of the pole, rod, or bar,

and in the example shown in the drawings said eye F forms an adjustable socket or sup- Serial No. 217,444. (No model.)
